A Book About Turns on a Board
An extensive, chapter-by-chapter snowboard guide covering learning, equipment, physics, fear, and the mechanics of carving.
Field notes
The book is organized as a dense, publicly navigable table of contents rather than a short promotional page. Its sequence joins beginner exercises with equipment choices and technical explanations, including a physics section on angular momentum and centripetal forces. The chapter list also preserves practical teaching concerns: fear, identifying mistakes, finding an instructor, trajectory glitches, energy cost, and the first backside turn. The page credits Maria Pisklova and German Osmak and includes disclaimers, definitions, quotations, and further-reading links.
